This time it doesn’t do away with the Legislative Audit Bureau, but it does install inspectors generals in major state agencies with great authority to investigate fraud, waste, abuse, or inefficiencies.

Who will appoint these inspectors general? Republican leaders in the legislature.

But isn't that growing government bigger instead of shrinking it? What gives. I thought they were the party of small government? Of course we all know why they are doing it, as you said, not only to make their power over government agencies permanent, but to also prevent them from ever having to be accountable to the people who elected them. Lastly, where will they get the money to pay for these high salary jobs? More cuts to education and colleges? Or, cuts to senior assistance programs or food share?
